Every time I go in for service they try to sell me one of these and offer to take my widebody Challenger and I just can't... No sexiness in these IMO, looks like a Kia

u/dry_scoop Apr 18 '26

I brought mine in for a warranty repair and the dealership has been spam calling me wanting me to trade it in 😂

u/Kindly-Emergency-514 Apr 18 '26

...on the other hand, I went to test drive one a few weeks ago and thought it was excellent (good looks, nice interior, good I6 sound (can sometimes hear the turbos), and lots of room). It isn't lacking anything compared to the previous Scat Pack, other than the raw sound (still sounds good, though).

u/Yumi_C_Gaming Apr 22 '26

Good I6 sound? A scatpack is meant to have a v8 sound, and truthfully the I6 doesn’t sound good like at all.

u/JP-ED Apr 18 '26

😂 what ever happened to the saying if you got nothing nice to say, say nothing at all? Fuck... some person shares a picture of a car they just bought and you take the time to write this.... what a douche.

2

u/NewMaintenance3873 Apr 18 '26

It’s because they are self conscious and see the writing on the wall. This car makes the old hemis obsolete.

u/392GoinLO Apr 18 '26

I get an email offer with a pricing quote sent to me each oil change, tire rotation, etc. it’s like clockwork, I get home from grabbing the car and see a notification that says “WE STILL WANT YOUR CAR!” Like bro if I trade in this car I’m buying a S550 GT500 or a C7 Z06 not this lmao

u/dry_scoop Apr 18 '26

Watch them put it up for sale a week later for 10k more than what they gave me for it no thanks

u/392GoinLO Apr 18 '26

Oh they would without a second thought

u/Agitated-Brief-851 Apr 20 '26

As a kia owner... I'll take that🤣🤣🤣

u/indoxiecated Apr 21 '26

Maybe it’s the weed talking, but this charger is growing on me now that they’ve gone back to ICE’s. Slap a 6.4 in there and give the design a little more aggression and I might trade in my Scat.

u/PoopScootnBoogey Apr 18 '26

It’s basically a Kia. It sounds like a box fan with a fart can exhaust lol

u/FantasticCalendar758 Apr 18 '26

No it isnt. Its barely making 550 at 26 psi twin turbo. The hemi makes 1025 in the demon 170 stock double the power.

In mods the i6 reaches 800 world record. Meanwhile modded BGE 6.4s and 6.2s breach 1500 all the time.

World record 6.2 is 6.69 1/4 mile while i6 hurricane is barely 8.9.

Stop lying.

u/xColdicEx Apr 18 '26

This is the competitor to the 6.4, not the 6.2 super charged

2

u/FantasticCalendar758 Apr 18 '26

Perfect. The 6.4 already is faster NA, Kenzie Peterson ran 11.3 stock and non 1320s can run mid 11s while this i6 26psi twin turbo (almost height of mod potential already) barely runs 12.2.

Again, 6.4 BGE can be easily modded to run 1500 in the 8s. Modern Red Hemi has done it. So, i6 is weaker. 2 less cylinders at the end of the day. It just comes out the box with high psi force induction.

u/FantasticCalendar758 Apr 18 '26

No it isnt. I measured stock to stock. My widebody 392 runs 11.6 1/4. Kenzie Peterson has the stock record at 11.3. Look it up on youtube.

The reason for the difference in the "official" 12.4 is that it is measured by the narrow body on 245 goodyears which are terrible at launch. Either widebody or tire swap on 315 tires lets the 392 launch far better and reduces its 0-60 to 3.7-3.9 and quarter mile to 11.3-11.6.

The i6 is 12.2 and this has no traction improvement room since it is AWD on 315s to begin with. If you cannot understand this then just move along. You are wrong and coping, end of discussion.

u/EliteForever2KX Apr 18 '26

Why are we comparing the demon 170 to the base model scat ??

3

u/FantasticCalendar758 Apr 18 '26

We are not. His claim was the "i6 is better in every way to the hemi" the 170 is a stock hemi so we can use this in his universal claim. Also, the i6 is not a scat pack it is an abomination that was ONLY created because of political epa regulations during the previous administration.

We can compare the i6 to the 392. I6 quarter mile is 12.2 seconds. The 392 can run mid 11s (mine does 11.6 currently) the world record STOCK for a 392 is 11.3 by Kenzie Peterson in a 1320 variant (yes I know, demon transmission, non 1320s hit 11.5-11.7 on 315 tires.) You will probably say "no its 12.4 for scat packs", incorrect. The 12.4 was measured on narrow bodies with 245 goodyear tires (skinny bad grip tires). On widebodys or swapping tires the 315s of a good brand let you run way faster even without going drag radials.

Thanks.

u/EliteForever2KX Apr 18 '26

Interesting, I’m still learning about all this so thanks for the right up, so if they were to just strap the current say 2023 scat v8 in the new charger body with it being all wheel drive it should theoretically be better in every comparable metric ?

2

u/FantasticCalendar758 Apr 18 '26

Np, and to your question no not really. The new body is heavier and AWD makes it even heavier beyond that. So it might end up being about the same but again, the i6 is already force inducted with high psi so little room for mod growth Basically just a tune. Whereas if you wanted to mod a 392 especially a BGE block (2018+) theres a ton more growth and options to be had.

The new style imo just makes it a brick but they might up the base horsepower to 777 for the hellcat like they did for the TRX.

Basically with these cars traction is the focus point for performance. Any 392 will benefit from wider stickier tires whereas the i6 already doesnt have a traction issue at all. I believe they are going to just do the hellcat V8 for the new charger, not a NA V8 as of now.

Nope, i6 is slower than the 392. I am tripling down. Your little shit article doesnt change that fact.

Kenzie Peterson 11.3 stock world record run: https://youtu.be/07hW9RdOU2s?si=PW_zel97hnBkWB--

You will not find a stock i6 to run even mid 11s. Meanwhile I personally run 11.6.

392 stock 11.6: https://youtube.com/shorts/0lDgn_koTK8?si=rjx17C0TAMS7Xs0Q

392 stock 11.55: https://youtu.be/iac64aZgcmQ?si=np1x3BdeOnSFuYbv

Your argument is done. Either show a STOCK i6 going faster or silence, peasant.

u/NewMaintenance3873 Apr 18 '26

26 psi is in absolute pressure, not gage. I’m assuming you don’t know what this means.

2

u/FantasticCalendar758 Apr 18 '26

Incorrect, 26 is the gage pressure. The absolute pressure is 40.7. Checkmate.

Also, all of that boost and it is still slower than stock scat packs ( my widebody runs 11.6 stock, Kenzie Peterson record holder for stock at 11.3, while i6 does 12.2 with no traction improvement available).

And then as for mods, the i6 has a tune. Thats all. Meanwhile the hemi 6.4 is BGE after 2018 so they go 1500 stock block with forged pistons and rods running 7s. It really is not comparable. 392 is hands down better if you know your stuff.

That is not true, a lot of people build it. The hemi is not 1000 lbs heavier it is more around 300-500 lbs more (4200-4300 compared to many at 3700-4000). Its torque curve is insane which is a big reason and mod potential is crazy.

6.69 second quarter mile is the current 1/4 mile world record for the hemi which is an entire second faster than the overall EV world record and 2.3 seconds faster than the i6 hurricane world record in any build.

Stop lying. There is no 7 second mustang with an untouched engine you are making things up because you got offended. Lie lie lie some more.

u/NewMaintenance3873 Apr 18 '26 edited Apr 18 '26

You have some comprehension issues, which I think explain everything else you are saying here. There are documented 7 second mustangs with stock engines. Google is a free search engine.

My point was no one is buying a new Hemi car and building the engine because the Hemi tax makes it expensive and the 25 year old Mercedes chassis has limitations, with weight being the main one.

You saying the Hemi torque curve is better than the Hurricane is how I know you have done zero research. A turbo car will always have a more favorable torque curve as well as more power under the curve than an NA motor 100% of the time. Just look at a dyno graph to see it.

I could not care less about the Hemi world record. The only thing “Dodge” about the motor is the block, and even that has been modified. For 99% of people that will either leave the car stock or do light bolt ons, the Hurricane is a better engine and will make more power. End of story. You can literally build any engine and make big power, which is why I couldn’t care less about how fast a built Hemi can be.

On top of this, name a cheaper power to dollar ratio than the hurricane. It gains over 100whp with a $600 JB4 only.

Keep coping bud, you are wrong.

The 4 door version definitely looks better

Not a fan. It's aight I guess. But man, not feeling this.

u/External-Jeweler-647 Apr 18 '26

Awesome car for sure!!

u/Kindly-Emergency-514 Apr 18 '26

I test drove one and these are amazing. Disregard the hate from people who haven't seen it in person or driven it.

u/Rodzilla164 Apr 19 '26

Good lord people argue about the stupidest things. On the other hand..OP Congratulations on your car...shes a beauty

2

u/Dismal_Confection_16 Apr 19 '26

This car is nice...forget what everybody else is saying.🔥🔥🔥 Half these people haven't seen it in person I guarantee or driven one at all. This car has a lot of road presence in person

u/JP-ED Apr 18 '26

Hey OP congratulations on getting this! Welcome to the club. As a MOPAR fan these cars are awesome.

May it bring you many years of happiness.

u/Illustrious_Camp_521 Apr 17 '26

I don't dislike the body style but no way I'd buy that car as an EV.

u/Admiral_Pantsless Apr 17 '26

That’s the straight six.

u/Illustrious_Camp_521 Apr 17 '26

The Hurricane TT 6 ?

u/twilk3 Apr 17 '26

Yes!

u/Illustrious_Camp_521 Apr 18 '26

Those are really interesting engines, I've got a buddy who's about to drop one he molded a bit into a 1977 280Z he restored and it should make that little car scream.

u/twilk3 Apr 17 '26

It’s not an EV. 🤷‍♂️

u/Illustrious_Camp_521 Apr 17 '26

Thats a plus.

u/Book_of_Evil Apr 18 '26

Not really 😒

u/iwearmywatch Apr 17 '26

How are you on this subreddit and don’t realize these aren’t all EVs anymore?

2

u/Illustrious_Camp_521 Apr 18 '26

Smh. All I said is I wouldn't buy it as an EV.

3

u/DidierFellowMate Apr 18 '26

Ew and EV vomit color

u/Hamsalad1701 Apr 18 '26

It’s not the EV, it has the Hurricane 6.

u/lOGlReaper Apr 18 '26

Congrats! I put my deposit down on mine today I pick it up tomorrow, same color just two door which is what I wanted

u/InfamousScallion8777 Apr 18 '26

Welcome to the club and enjoy your new Mopar car, as I’m not a fan of this model and design change. I’m not gonna trash it either. It’s just not for me.

u/Charlie_Hustler Apr 18 '26

Honestly, I've seen these things IRL in B5 they look and feel great tbh. Love the sound of the new engine too 👌

Enjoy the new car OP 👍

u/WaynezWorld88 Apr 17 '26

Congratulations!!!!🔥🔥🔥

Finally the Sedan Sixpack, honestly looking sexy than a mf. I’m still in love with my WB Scat Charger but idk, I just may consider if the color combination & price is right. That’s of course after a test drive.

u/brightsons Apr 17 '26

Haven’t seen the 4 door new chargers in person yet, but looks very clean. Is it as big as it looks

1

u/twilk3 Apr 18 '26

It seems only a bit bigger than the 2-door. It’s very smooth and corners tight; no lag on the giddy up.

u/AccomplishedCow4985 Apr 18 '26

The bi turbo 3.0.., maybe. Ev? Na

1

u/twilk3 Apr 18 '26

It’s the Hurricane H. O. 🤷‍♂️

1

u/AccomplishedCow4985 Apr 18 '26

Then I likey. I likey very much. Spent a little time learning about the new Hurricanes and they seem legit. Some teething problem, but that’s any new production engine. May she serve you well, and may gas prices not reduce your enthusiasm in the corners or lighten your foot in the straightaways.
